Well when I was in the Navy my roomate showered he just never washed his clothes...and i mean never..his clothes smelled so bad I almost use to throw up. I asked him a couple times upfront, he dodged the subject, so I took more drastic measures, Id spit on his bed and pillow right in front of him, and pour all his food in the garbage, I'd empty his clothes in the hall with detergent poured all over them, and abused him verbally 24-7 I know I sound like a bad person but the smell was so wretched finally I had to send a grievance through my COC to have him escorted to a washer and dryer and wash his clothes..eventually they got tired of babysitting him and he started doing it again so I told him if he didn't wash his clothes I was going to beat him up and break his computer(funny how computers usually have to do with smelly people) when he realized I was serious he started paying someone to do it for him...I didn't really care I was just glad it was over...so my advice is be straight foward tell them they stink and what you think the problem is...they may be offended but you've already been offended by their disgusting odor..

Try asking him what that smell is? Tell him you can smell something that smells like body odor. Tell him you have tried getting rid of the smell and it won't go away. IF all of this does not work or he does not get the hint, tell him to take a shower and use deoderant or find somewhere else to live because the stench is making you sick.

Maybe you should buy extra deodorant and soap and offer it to him. It sounds like you just need to be blunt and offer the items to take a shower with. I have always heard when you smell yourself everyone else has smelled you for 3 days so maybe he hasn't hit that 3 day marker yet.

you're able to say some thing alongside the strains of ''howdy i'm no longer asserting this to embarrass you, yet you variety of scent. it seems such as you at the instant are not attentive to it, so I basically wanted to permit you be attentive to. in line with threat you're able to take a tub or positioned on some deodorant'' asserting it with politeness is amazingly important and make sure you do no longer use the word 'No offence yet.." additionally, basically remember to men are on my own. She could sense uncomfortable if there is yet another guy or woman in the room.

You should not have to tell an adult to shower. Maybe he's a hippy and don't believe in regular grooming. Just say "hey dude, you stink really bad." That should be all you need to say.

Just be honest. It must be difficult to come out and say "dude you smell" but you have to do something. How did you end up with BO Boy as a roommate anyway?

Start spraying him with deodorant everytime he walks by.When he asks what you are doing tell him he is a disgusting pig and if he doesnt clean his dirty a.s.s. then you will move out or kick him out.

Accidentally spill a bunch of shower gel/ liquid soap on him and say, "oops, now you'll have to wash all that off!"

On his birthday, give him a stick of deodorant and a box of soap...I don't know how to give you more subtle hints than that...or you could just be direct and say, 'JEEZ! GO AND USE DEODORANT OR SOMETHING!'
